APOSTELENES GERNINGER 25:16

Dem svarede jeg, at Romere ikke have for Skik at prisgive noget Menneske, førend den anklagede har Anklagerne personligt til Stede og får Lejlighed til at forsvare sig imod Beskyldningen.

To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face, and have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.
